IMO, no character types should implicitly convert from integer types.
In fact, character types shouldn't convert from ANYTHING (even other
character types). We have so many problems with this.
Is everyone in general agreement on this? Can anyone think of a
compelling use case?
I would think this is another DIP from the one you are looking at, as it
is more far-reaching than just overload problems. They are real
problems, but this makes the DIP scope broader than it should be, and
lessen the chance of acceptance.
